I have used this phone for over two years now and chose not to accept an upgrade when I was due for one in order to keep it.
At first I found the large space between the keys difficult to manage, especially when texting, but like all things I got used to it.
The keypad lost sensitivity over time, and eventually became a fault, but a quick search on Ebay found me a new membrane and a friend fitted it so it works like new again.
The photo quality isn't great, and the choice of pre-installed games is limited - only 2 and one of them is football. But I only need a phone which has the basic functions of call and text, for these, it is great.
The sound quality in the earpiece is good and adjustable, although the predictive text can be a little frustrating.
Personally, I love the flip design and find it especially useful when it gets buried in the bottom of my bag. Overall, I would recommend it.

Lightweight phone that does exactly what it says on the tin, but does have a couple of drawbacks.
Firstly, the video camera option doesn't work. Will film easily enough, but when saved, the whole phone freezes and you have to reset.
Also, the build quality is poor. The hinge has come loose after only a few weeks which allows movement between the pieces.
Not a bad phone, but these two points stop it from being a must have.

Cool looking and very under-rated phone, I got one in black and it looks great. I would say that the killer app on this phone is the sound, it plays such good quality tunes. I would like to try this phone with an adaptor into an amplifier to prove how good it is.

This phone was excellent when I first got it but after a few months the charger cover on the phone pealed off, now after about 9 months my buttons hardly work and seem to do whatever they want.
My friends phone has also gone the same way. But this is a very easy phone to use and I really love it and can't part with it even with its faults.
The camera quality is excellent and I have had some printed out into real pictures and they look as though they have been taken on a digital camera.

The Motorola V8 is another good quality phone from Motorola with good features and quite easy to use. The colour screen is of a good quality and the camera always produces good quality pictures. The only thing that lets the Motorola V8 down a little is the choice of preloaded ringtones but it is easy enough to download others if you cant find one you like.
